Singer Ludwig under investigation by Rome prosecutors in alleged Fagioli extortion case
Singer and DJ Ludovico Franchitti, known as Ludwig, is under investigation by the Rome prosecutor's office as part of a strand of the betting probe. According to the prosecution, he allegedly helped force Nicolò Fagioli, a Fiorentina midfielder and former Juventus player, to pay 40,000 euros by threatening to ruin his career and to make public information about his betting. There are five suspects in total: among them Andrea Petrini, who is accused of illegally organising betting, and Luca Gerilli, former sporting director of Ancona, who is under investigation for aggravated extortion. An employee of a betting agency, also under investigation, has rejected the accusations. In recent days, searches were carried out at the singer's home and on his phone.
